I have always wondered, if there was early voting here too, would the turnout be higher. Not sure what the security measures will be. :d I can't imagine voting in the mail and not knowing if my vote will even reach the place, be counted or even switched.  

People fear that here too

Do you guys (any nation) vote by machine or by paper, by the way? 

Voted on a paper ballot that was read by a machine at my polling place. However, California will completely change our voting process in the next election. We’re going to use IPads at polling centers that will be open for 10 days

Denmark, one of the most digitised nations in EU and the world, we, of course, stil vote by paper. (Which I hate because I'm a volunteer at every election and it takes forever to count the votes...)

I volunteer as well, but not yesterday since my dead history paper couldn’t turn in my student application

IPads, not tablets. Apple was founded in California. California's nickname is "the golden state". The big apple is the nickname of New York. Who lives in New York and has a golden decorated apartment. President Trump wins the 2020 election is confirmed.

Spoiler

Actually it's just 'tablet', but for whatever reason people who own Apple-stuff seem incapable of calling their tablet a tablet and their phone a phone.

You should go to a smaller polling station then :d Or they don't let you choose where to volunteer?

Nope, they just send me to some random polling station in my city. Maybe I'm lucky next election.

It's more urban to start a word (or an acronym) with a lowercase letter followed by an uppercase one.
